The Israeli massacre of 59 unarmed civilians in Gaza is by and large par the course based on recent history. As the courageous Israeli dissident Gilad Atzmon said last week it shows the total failure of the Zionist project.
This in fact is the them of this blog. The fact that the Israeli state is resorting to these methods shows that they know they are facing the long term failure of the Zionist state.
I base my conclusions on demographics. In the total Israeli/Palestine area there are now seven million Palestinians and six million Israelis. The population gap between the two groups is likely to grow rapidly in the Palestinians favour in the coming years.
Turning now to a political solution to the problem. The idea of a two state solution is in my opinion dead in the water due to Israel,s settlements in the West Bank. So we are moving into the Hegelian dialectic of a one state solution which is what Israel does not want. But which its actions are going to create.
The Palestinians have shown great resilience in my opinion in response to the theft of their land. Their tactic in the future should be to sit still and resist the Israeli repression with peaceful measures. History is on their side and a one state solution is the inevitable outcome.
Then peace will finally come to the land of Christ. Best wishes to all for the future. God bless you all. Keep on fighting for peace,justice and social equality.
